Why can't I see more than 50 entries in my 1099B in TurboTax Business? I manually entered nearly 200 sales but when I go back to edit I only see the first 50 of them and can't seem to see the rest. I need to review an edit all entries because I am off slightly form the summary numbers on the investment tax statement and I want to find the error. Also the Form 8949 only shows a few of the entries...so I can't edit on the form. Where are the rest of those?

Enter only the summary amounts for covered sales. Only enter each sale for uncovered sales.
Thanks, but that doesn't help. I know the entries are there because the summary numbers in the Summary for this Account page are darned close to my statement. So what's the problem? Why can't I edit all entries...and why do the Form 8949s look abbreviated when I view the form? I want to see all my detail and I don't think that is too much to ask. Anyone?
Most tax software limits how many 1099‑B transactions you can see or edit in the interface. Even though only ~50 entries appear, all transactions are imported and included in your totals. The IRS allows summary reporting for large datasets, so Form 8949 often shows only category totals with a note like “See attached statement” instead of listing every lot.
The full detail is still included in the electronic filing, but the software doesn’t display every line item. To view all transactions, you usually need to check your broker’s detailed statement or export the import file if the software supports it.
If you wish to be able to edit your entries, here are some suggestions:
3. If your software never shows all lines, use manual entry
Some programs (especially TurboTax Online) simply won’t display more than ~50–100 rows, even though they import everything. If you absolutely must edit each lot:
These are some suggestions you can try. My suggestion is to leave "as is". You mention the summary totals are close to your statement and this may be due to rounding differences. The IRS takes this into account thus does raise any "red flags".
